Do you have the ability to cull from that information?

I think we ought to figure out if we can get a baseline here, where it's simpler and more direct.

What's the point? I mean, at what point? How long?

I think--you're an engineer, aren't you?

Final question. I know I've gone over my time, but----

If you drop out or change your setting, does the old--is--what happens to the old information? How long is that kept?

To help the public, Congress should recognize that certain aspects of this new world raise serious consumer protection issues and act with that in mind.

I understand that----but do they want to share it with you in a way that you can, sort of, cull it?

Is it accurate or inaccurate that, at Facebook, for instance, when a privacy concern mounts, or there's a modification of service somehow, that you change a practice that effectively can increase the amount of information that users share…

I remember these conversations, 10 years ago, when Senator Hollings and we tried to pass a broadbased distribution of privacy rights.

We must move from the current marketing regime that uses information with abandon--where people's data are being sliced and diced to create reputations for them that they don't know about and might not agree with--to a regime that acts…

Can you tell us what 'deep packet inspection' is?

I'm beginning to think that some parts of this have to be regulated.

But consequences of abandoning that fight could be far more costly, and we have to be honest with ourselves about the grim consequences for Afghans, especially women, if we once again leave the field to Islamic militants.

I think it's important not to overhype or get excessively excited about the meaning of those documents.

For all of us, the release of any classified information--I think this needs to be stated--is unacceptable.

Our lack of strategic patience at the beginning of the 1990s paved the way to 9/11 a decade later.

You can't kill your way out of an insurgency.

Successful reconciliation and reintegration in my view can only occur within a successful counterinsurgency.

We will not prevail over our adversaries any other way.

James Baker said that New START is an important part of our efforts to strengthen the nonproliferation regime.

Support for the New START Treaty has, frankly, been overwhelming, from both Republicans and Democrats.

The New START Treaty will make a vital contribution to American security.

James Schlesinger called ratification, 'obligatory.'
